Sewer pipeline complete 
Final connection works to come

You might not notice a lot of the work we do because most of it is beneath your feet. Every day, we’re maintaining and upgrading the pipes and pumps that keep water flowing.  
 
Our Ti Tree Creek Branch Sewer Duplication project has completed construction of the sewer pipeline in Grices Road Reserve in Berwick. Works have been delivered by our contractor Fulton Hogan Delplant Beca Joint Venture (FHDB).

Final sewer connection works are expected to start later in 2025.
We’ll return to Grices Road Reserve and The Esplanade later this year to connect the new sewer pipeline to the existing sewerage network. We’re still planning these works, and we’ll notify you of any impacts in advance.

What we're doing

This project is to install a new sewer pipe in Berwick to increase the reliability of the network and reduce the risk of spills. We're working with FHDB to help us. The final phase of sewer pipeline construction works in Grices Road Reserve, Berwick are now complete.

Packing up our site compounds 
We’ll pack up and remove our temporary site compound near Marija Crescent, and equipment laydown area at Ridgemont Drive. We’re working with Council to reinstate trees and impacted grassed areas.

Final sewer connection works later in 2025 
We’ll return to Grices Road Reserve and The Esplanade later this year do additional works to connect the new sewer pipeline to the existing sewerage network. We’re still planning these works, and we’ll notify you of any impacts in advance.

When it's happening

We’re still planning the final sewer connection works in Grices Road Reserve and The Esplanade, and we’ll notify you of any impacts in advance.

You can expect us to work Monday to Friday between 7 am and 6 pm. On the odd occasion, we may need to work at other times for safety or technical reasons.

What might impact you

We’ll do our best to keep impacts to a minimum, however these are the kinds of things you might notice while we work:

  • Deliveries and construction of temporary gravel roads to access the works area.
  • Movement of heavy vehicles in and out of work zones during working hours.
  • Noise from machinery, like beepers when trucks reverse.
  • More trucks on local roads and in reserve areas

Construction staff will be available to safely guide drivers and pedestrians through the works area. Please take care when travelling around the work site.

Don't miss these details

You shouldn’t notice any change to your water or sewer services while we work.

FHDB will have a temporary site compound and storage area for the final connection works. We'll notify you of this location once final connection works begin.

When we’ve finished the job, we’ll leave things how we found them and return any areas we’ve impacted as close as possible to their original condition.
